YES Manifestos are primal: Yes, we clearly have a manifesto!
NO Manifestos terminate the past: No end to anything here…
NO Manifestos create new worlds: No real creation or beginning either…
NO Manifestos trigger communities: No, not really. Getting a few people reading the blog feed and that’s about it.
NO Manifestos define us: No clear definition of a group…
NO Manifestos antagonise others: No mention of others…
NO Manifestos inspire being: No attitude or way of being defined…
YES Manifestos provoke action: Yes, it tells you how to act and what to include when writing your own manifesto…
YES Manifestos crave presence: Yes, a website campaign has been created… The Manifesto Project.
Score: 3 out of 9
To improve the Manifesto Score, here’s some suggestions…
This is a typical manifesto that is really a set of principles. Therefore the score of 3.
A set of principles is useful and would be more powerful as part of a bigger context. For instance, the Ten Commandments sits inside the bigger context of the Bible.
I think I need to go back my Bible. Or at least expand on the manifesto of The Year of the Manifesto.
Is that score about right? If you’ve got a list of principles as your manifesto, how could you create a bigger context around this? Add the other principles to improve your score.
